Default Muggle Studies Lesson One- Tooting Your Own Horn!

Coming down to the end of October, the weather was bond to get a tad cold, a warning sign that the full blast of winter would be upon them all soon. It was for this reason that she had taken care to make sure that there was complete warmth circulating in her classroom. If any of the kiddos felt the need to wear extra layers of clothing then by all means they were quite free to.

This was not the first lesson she would be teaching after the events of last term and though they had went off fairly well, Kay was still worried about one of the more fiery kiddos giving her sass or disrupting the lesson. She didn't think she had the energy to defend herself anymore and it was for this reason that she had become withdrawn and unlike the cheery and bright person that she had been.

As it was, today the woman was seated at her desk. Though today's lesson was already planned completely, she was drafting a plan for her upcoming one. It was always best to be prepared. Once you enter the classroom, you may take a seat at one the combination desks. Taped to the whiteboard, is a chart displaying the various methods of transportation used by muggles. Air, land and sea methods were all covered.

She'd been quiet while people yelled out the answers and everything, maybe daydreaming a bit and just wishing that they were doing motorbikes instead. That would be the best. She zoned back in right in time for a question though, so Bel put her hand up, still thinking about the alignment of the diagram.

"Make sure you're driving on the ri--on the correct side of the road for the country that you're in." JUST to avoid any confusion there.

A few do's and don'ts? There was a big one that jumped out to her, although no one had mentioned it yet. "Professor, you shouldn't hit the other cars. Or, buildings. Well, you really shouldn't hit any other objects or living things while driving." Doing any of those would get you in a lot of trouble. Plus, they would be expensive to fix and your car might not work after ramming it into something.

She scribbled down more notes and updated her diagram list for the few items she wasn't sure of. Her fingers lightly tapped on her notes, just waiting for the announcement from Professor Stewart that was sure to come. They had to be going on a field trip or there must be a car somewhere that they would get to play with. Why else would they be spending so much time learning about a car?

Derf was still trying to figure out some more of the diagram while everyone else was shouting out answers - which would have been a GOOD for him to be paying attention to so he could have corrected some of his and Bel's mistakes along with adding the ones they had missed to their parchment. Oh well.

So when it came time for advice, Derf had a few things in mind...but something Bel said distracted him and, well, as all Derf's did...he began to spiral off into conspiracy theory land. They, he and Bel, had spent a decent amount of time talking about how the interior of the car was reversed...compared with what THEY knew and stuff. The diagram was for an American car. Their professor had been magically manipulated with DARK MAGIC by Americans for...three years had it been? Why were they learning about American car bits when they wouldn't be seeing THOSE on the road when they went out into London and when they were of age and had the urge to get one of those driving licence things and....WAS SHE STILL UNDER THE INFLUENCE?! WAS THIS SOME ATTEMPT AT MASS DESTRUCTION OR SOMETHING?!

No...no Derf. Calm down. You had promised yourself that you WOULDN'T do this and let your imagination get the best of you...but it was SO WEIRD and HARD considering the woman was, again, looking like she was being tailed by an invisible dementor sometimes and she had been that way while under the influence of the Williams twins.

IT. WAS. ALL. PIECING. TOGETHER!

So his hand FLEW up, for clarification purposes. On diagrams. And stuff. Not going to accuse the woman of anything YET. "Professor...why do...some countries have the steering wheel on the right side of the cabin...and others the left?"

Yes. OTHERS. O T H E R S.

Now that the class had almost finished helping her label the diagrams, Kay quickly added the remaining parts then capped her marker for now.

OOC: Main activity starts tomorrow, guys! Get ready to rumble! xD
"No, I wouldn't. Thank you." Her tone was polite but uncompromising as blue eyes refocused on the woman who'd drawn her from the deep recesses of her mind. For starters, she didn't know what the question i]was[/i], but even if she did, she wasn't particularly keen on giving an answer.

What was the point?

Having declined the woman's "offer" to share what she knew, Jessa turned her gaze to the list she'd scribbled once more. It had nothing to do with cars but everything to do with where her attention currently was. So far, the Ravenclaw had been doing a brilliant job of not paying attention, and she planned to continue that trend....

.....

.....But not before answering this one question she'd caught the tail end of--because how could she resist?

"Don't stand infront of one if it's speeding in your direction." Such sound knowledge. They were entirely welcome and she was going back to looking out the window. Oh look, the birds were back. She'd still like a pair of those. Perhaps the whomping willow had some fresh ones for her. Maybe she would check after the lesson was over.

Ooh. The main part of the lesson would be starting soon? Harriet was really hoping that meant they would be able to do something practical. She was getting a little restless with all this sitting. She wanted to be able to get up and do a few stretches, and get less crampy. So she hoped it would be a good practical. First she needed to think about this last question. Whilst she hadn't driven herself, she had been in a car a handful of time, so hoped that she kind of remembered some tips. She hadn't been that bothered though, nor was she now, so she wasn't thinking too hard. She didn't need this knowledge, so she wasn't going to try to hard.

Luckily, she could remember something, so she could at least answer the question. "You have to adhere to the speed limit of the road you're driving on" so no super fast driving all the time, which was kinda sad, but also needed for safety.

Max didn't really know the answer to the do's and don't question and listened to what his classmates had to say. The helmet thing sounded like a good idea, but he didn't remember wearing one when he went in a car...

And he liked Prefect Cambridge's answer a lot.

He didn't know that different roads had different speed limits either... Or that in some countries they drove on the different side??? Yep, he was happy just listening for now.

Rylee smiled nodding her head. So she had been correct in her answer and the center one was the break. Picking up her pen she made quick note to write that down before she forgot to. Along with all the other tips all her classmates were saying. Wearing a seatbelt at all times... yeah, this was important... very very important. Speed limit, keeping your eyes on the road, not hitting anything, using your mirrors. She wrote all that down.

"You want to use your turn signal if you plan on turning or changing lanes so other drives will know what you're doing and you won't cause an accident," she offered when it was her turn to speak.

Okay, so the car part Maddie thought was used for waving to passersby was called windshield wipers. They weren't used for waving at all. They were used for cleaning and wiping away raindrops. That sounded so boring. She thought using them for waving was so much more exciting.

It seemed like class was coming to an end, and all she had to do now was come up with something you should or should not do on the road. OHH! She knew a good one! "You probably shouldn't try to fly your car the same way Ron Weasley did," she said, raising her hand. Who hadn't heard about that epic story? And let's see...something you should do? "You should always stop when your car gets to a red light."

Patrick smiled, "well I know how to drive manual tractors, but as for cars, I know my parents prefer to drive an automatic." He smiled at Professor Stewart he loved looking at cars, but he was partial to some of the older models because that's what a lot of his friends parents drove.

He listened to the answers that most of his friends were stating. They were obvious answers, ones that he understood well. "My parents used to yell at us for turning the lights on in the back seat of the car." He shrugged a bit, "But Cellular phones are a big no no for people driving." he wrote down some of the other answers just as a precaution in case she asked about them in an essay or something.

So Skylar was still fretting about labeling the parts of her diagram when people started shouting out answers. Uhhhh ... Wheel. She was confident with that answer. Or the lights in number one on the exterior. But then before she could answer one of the parts to her diagram, they were moving on to dos and donts of driving a car? Okay so some of the answers seemed a bit obvious.

Also, for the record, she'd probably fair okay with driving a car because it wasn't all that different from flying. Just some more controls. Just because she didn't know what a CLUTCH was, didn't mean she couldn't figure out how to use it!

"Being able to multi-task is important." Mmhm. That was her two knuts worth. Or pounds. Whatever.

Oh, but... "Seat belts! I think you have to wear those so you don't get hurt if your car goes haywire." As Muggle devices were wont to do. "And... Professor, do you have to wear a helmet? My sister has one for her motorbike, but I wasn't sure if you needed them for cars too."


"Excellent. Seat belts are a most because if there's an accident, it just might be able to help save a life.'' She was not going into the grisly details of possibly colliding headlong into the windscreen if one did not wear seatbelts. "Helmets are for motorbikes and cycles. Make sure to wear yours, Ms. Kettleburn.''

SPOILER!!: Dae!

But he did greatly appreciate her trying to make him feel better. Not only trying, but succeeding.


As for advice on what to do and what to avoid? His hand went up. "Use all mirrors." Because he supposed vehicles had so many for a very good reason. Unless muggles were that full of themselves and wanted to admire several of their angles while operating a vehicle.


Look at Daehyun getting into the discussion. This made Kay proud. "Very good. It is always important to know what is going on behind your vehicle as well as the sides. The rearview mirror as well as the two mirrors on the sides of the doors...'' They were pointed out on the charts. ''… are adjustable to fit your height so there's really no excuse for not using them.''

SPOILER!!: Ronan, Lyn!

Hmm...seatbelts had been mentioned, so had the use of the mirrors. Oh..."Make sure you keep your eyes on the road at all times." Yep. After all, that was what the windscreen (or windshield, if you're American) was mostly for.

"This is possibly the most important rule of the road, everyone. Mr. Carter is absolutely correct. Remember, you are not only responsible for your life but also the lives of every other driver and pedestrian.'' Looking at Lyn, she added, "Not to mention objects around you. It will be an expense to you if you were to reimburse the person whose property you caused damages to. Not to mention your own vehicle will cause a lot at the mechanic.''

Yes. OTHERS. O T H E R S.




"Very good. For example, the British, Indians, Australians drive on the left side but in other countries, like Malta and the United States, the right side is utilised. It's best to check up on this information whenever you visit another country.'' If Kay knew exactly what Derf was thinking about her, she would have reassured him that there was not a single grasp that the Williams twins had on her. Not any more. That horrible chapter of her life was over. "This has to do with the side of the road the country utilises as well as manufacturer's preference. In most cases, when the country uses the right hand side, the driver seats are made on the left of the car. This was so because that it was thought as being more practical to have the driver seated near the centreline of the road so that they would be able to judge the space available when passing oncoming cars and to allow passengers seated in front to disembark the car onto the pavement instead of into the middle of the street.''

She'd still like a pair of those. Perhaps the whomping willow had some fresh ones for her. Maybe she would check after the lesson was over.


So Jessa wasn't interested in the mini activity but she did at least provide and another important point. "Yes. If you're a pedestrian, it's vital that you pay attention to the traffic. Likewise, if you're the drive, be courteous to pedestrians. Stop at traffic lights when it indicates they have the go ahead to cross the road, obey traffic signs that warn you of pedestrian crossings like around school areas.''

A smile spread across the woman's face. "That's true. You'd be in breach of Wizarding laws. With regard to the traffic light, yes. Red to stop, amber to slow down and green to go. Like speed limits, they can be frustrating but there to help prevent fatalities.''

He shrugged a bit, "But Cellular phones are a big no no for people driving." he wrote down some of the other answers just as a precaution in case she asked about them in an essay or something.



Ah, the tractor. She had never driven or been on one of those. "That sounds exciting.'' And she wondered if Patrick lived on a farm. "Yes. Nothing that can distract you from the road. If you need to use your phone, it is best to pull over or get a Bluetooth handset to carry out conversations. That is a piece of technology that allows you wirelessly connect to your calls without having to hold your phone to your ear.''

Okay so some of the answers seemed a bit obvious.


Also, for the record, she'd probably fair okay with driving a car because it wasn't all that different from flying. Just some more controls. Just because she didn't know what a CLUTCH was, didn't mean she couldn't figure out how to use it!


"Being able to multi-task is important." Mmhm. That was her two knuts worth. Or pounds. Whatever.

They were... heading outside?

... what for?

He was suspicious. And scared. Mostly scared. Because the topic of the lesson was cars, and they were going outside.

With a doubtful look, he packed his things and stuffed them into his bag, which he then flung over his shoulder, and followed professor Stewart. He didn't like being proven wrong, but this one time he hoped he would be. She couldn't have gotten an actual car on the castle grounds to show them everything in more detail, could she?

Maddie nodded along as the professor confirmed her answer. Truth be told, she thought the lesson was ending there. But...no? They were heading somewhere? Outside could only mean one thing--they were about to drive some cars! Maddie was too excited to be panicked about the fact that she'd never driven anything before. She was about to drive something now, and that's all that mattered!

For the time being...

The third year stuffed everything in her bag as quickly as she could, abandoned the bag where it was, and then followed the class outside.

Was he satisfied with that answer? Not particularly. Yes and no. But they were moving on so he simply shrugged his shoulders at Bel and packed up his things for easy retrieval later. Hopefully his doxy was still napping inside and would be for a bit longer. At least until he came back after doing whatever it was they were going to be doing outside.

Though it was preeeeeetty obvious they were going to be DRIVING...and Derf wasn't sure how he would handle that. Totally different from motocross, you know? Never been behind the wheel before, not even bumper cars!

"This ought to be...interesting," he chuckled to the quidditch captain as he left his seat and followed the rest outside.

It took about every ounce of her not to jump out of her chair and scream with excitement. They were going outside. She rushed to put her things away, not caring that her papers were getting crumpled or that her pencils were not organized. Her only care was to get her little self out the doors and to the next part of class.

With her bag packed, she got up out of her desk and followed the rest of the class out the door, smiling the entire time.

Uhhh listen, did the Professor not see all those controls and switches?! Skylar sighed, "Yes of course you have to concentrate on what's going on around you, which involves paying attention to all aspects of the car. There's lots of switches and controls that you need to know what you're doing. And then if you listen to music in the car, you have that task too. So while you're concentrating on seemingly one thing you're actually doing like ten things." Did that make sense? Yes, no? Was she just talking in circles.

Oh and they were going outside to fly....!!! Err... drive!! And Skylar had to wonder if the car might be one of those convertibles cause she quite likes being open to the elements. This was exciting though and maybe illegal!? Well not for her, being seventeen, but there were students here NOT of age... how curious. Oh well. Perhaps this was how Stewart wanted to be in the good graces after the previous terms!?

Was he bouncing a little? Because it felt like he was bouncing a little was he packed up his stuff and got up from his seat. There was definitely a bit of bounce to his step as he followed Professor Stewart out. "Woo-hoo!" Oops. Had anyone heard that?

Outside meant that they were most definitely driving.

Finally, they were going to do something fun outside the classroom. Nathan wondered if they were going to drive a muggle car? Wouldn't that be illegal in the muggle world due to his age? Coool. He quickly packed his bag and moved to follow the rest of the students. He hoped it's going to be an interesting experience.

Finally. A practical element! That made Harriet excited. The practicals were so much better than boring non-practicals. She knew they needed to do a bit of both, but she just preferred the practicals. She beamed, as she put her paper and pens back into her bag, and picked it up. She didn't really want to come back up to the classroom to collect it later, so that was why she was taking it with her. Once she had gotten everything she headed out of the classroom, following her peers. This was gonna be so much fun!

As Eria named off more names for the glove compartment, her eyebrows raised in the middle. Muggles were crazy. Just call it a compartment and get on with it! Jeesh! Kye shook her head, "Well I'll stick with the response I have, otherwise I'll run out of room apparently!" Kye had to wonder why people had to make such weird names for things, why couldn't they keep it simple?? "Thank you again, I appreciate the help," she said quietly to Eria.

When asked about the dos and don'ts of the road, Kye merely blinked. Uhh... she couldn't think of any better answers than those already being presented by her peers. She really didn't know much about cars (as if her first attempt at the diagrams wasn't a clear indication). Kye nodded at some of the answers, jotting down notes... in case she ever decided to drive? She doubted that would ever happen. She was able to get the sewing thing down last year, but Kye couldn't imagine herself hopping into such a big contraption that only she was controlling. She knew that muggles had plenty of car accidents literally every day, and she wasn't sure how anxious she would get trying that out. It was as this thought passed through her head that Professor Stewart was uhm... moving the class? Wait, did she have a car outside waiting for them? Were they going to get a driving lesson today?? Kye hesitantly put her things away and slung her bag over her shoulder, making her way with the crowd.

Oh? They were going outside? If he'd known that, he would've brought along a jacket...

Max carefully shoved all his bits and bobs into his rucksack, swung it onto his back and followed the rest of the other kids out of the classroom.

Ah. Kay got it now. She nodded. "I see what you're getting at, Ms Diggory. That's a good point too. Just as long as the drivers are not paying attention to their cellular phones or anything of the sort.''

SPOILER!!: Ronan!

Kay hid her smile. Some of the kiddos were definitely filled with excitement. Ronan seemed to be the most excited of them all.


"Come on, everyone. We don't want the lesson time to run out on us, do we?'' Not when there was much fun left to be experienced.

Jessa groaned; a long, anguished but internal groan at the instruction to pack up and head out of the classroom. There were only so many things they could've been doing and suffice to say none of them held any real interest for her.

In the beginning, she loved the practical portions of lessons. They gave her ample chance to get her hands dirty and try things for herself. Now that she'd learned it all....she'd sooner have a theoretical lesson in which she could sit and do a bit of her own reading or contently daydream about all the things she'd rather be doing. Both, as was easily understood, were harder to do when you were moving about doing things you weren't at all keen on.

At first, she thought to remain sitting. Maybe if everyone filed out with the Professor, no one would noticed she'd remained behind, then she could indeed get some reading done.

But no. In the next minute the Professor was urging the stragglers to hurry. This time, the girl gave an external, audible sigh as she pushed away from her seat and began packing her things away. The under-stimulation was sure to make whatever activity this was nothing short of torture for her but for the sake of compliance, she too headed out of the classroom.

It felt strange...being smiled at. The 5th year didn't really know what to think of it when the professor did it. Her face felt a little warm and she nodded to her before looking away. Nope...she wasn't going to enjoy it. She was probably smiling like that at someone behind her.

The she snake may have cracked a partial, fleeting smile at the older snake's comment. Even having a muggle parent...she thought they were a tad strange and crazy herself. As for the names....well it was a bit ridiculous really. "Oh, uh...no problem." The brunette replied just as quietly. Today had been...interesting.

Rylee smiled as the praise her answer had been given. Taking down the responses her classmates were also giving into her notebook she remained quite for several more minutes until the professor announced it was time to clear their things away.

Huh?

They were going outside? Slightly puzzled but much more excited than anything the second year hastily packed away her pens, notebook and textbook into her bag and got to her feet slinging the strap of her bag over her shoulder. She was ready to go! Without a moment to waste she quickly followed everyone out of the room to see what was going on!
